Mine was a 72 Gutlass Supreme w a Buick 455 and 3.23 posi, in yellow w black stripes. LOT of good stories about that one! ( LOST it in a 'custody' battle)
Latest 'NON SVX' project is a 1930 Willys Knight. Well, It is KINDA an SVX project, since the suspension is ALL gonna be SVX. Svxfiles delivered the rear 'set-up' yesterday and it WILL fit! He pulled it from the red one that was in his garage. I am using the front stuff too from the same car.
I am replacing the struts w coil-overs, but brakes, wheels, etc, are all SVX.
Power is and, will be Mopar. I guess that you can say that I am 'Grafting' the best parts from my favorite cars to build the 'perfect' Street Rod! (I built the car 10 years ago and got it back last year).
It will be a 'Rat-Rod' that handles like an SVX and runs like a Cuda!!! What a CONCEPT!!
